Schafberg Rack and Pinion Railway

Ride the historic rack and pinion railway up to a magnificent world from the top of Schafberg Mountain – a truly magical experience!

The Facts

The steppest steam cog railway in Austria has been running from St. Wolfgang to Schafberg since 1893. In 45 minutes it is conquers 1,190 meters of altitude over a stretch of 5.85 km to the top of the Schafberg. Although the steam engines are among the oldestin the world, a trip up to the Schafberg (1,783 m) is considered one of the most beautiful mountain vies in the world-famous Salzkammergut region. On a clear day there is a 360 ° panoramic view of the glistening Salzkammegut lakes, including Wolfgangsee, Irrsee, Mondsee, Attersee and Traunsee.

The majestic mountain environment in the surrounding are towers from the Höllengebirge to the Dachstein to the Watzmann.

This year, there is something new – the imperial palace car returns to the Schafbergbahn. He had become reconstructed and he’ll takes you up to the Schafberg as like as Imperial time.

Another piece of jewellery is the “Z1” – she was the first cog wheel engine which has scaled up the Schafberg in 1893.
